Answer : The molar concentration is, 6.35\times 10^{-18}mol/L

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of protein.

\text{Moles of protein}=\frac{\text{Number of molecules of protein}}{\text{Avogadro's number}}

Number of molecules of protein = 2 molecules

Avogadro's number =  6.022\times 10^{23}molecules/mol

\text{Moles of protein}=\frac{2\text{ molecules}}{6.022\times 10^{23}molecules/mol}=3.32\times 10^{-24}mol

Now we have to calculate the radius.

Radius = \frac{Diameter}{2}=\frac{1mm}{2}=0.5mm=5.0\times 10^{-4}m

Conversion used : (1 mm = 0.001 m)

Now we have to calculate the volume.

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

V=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (5.0\times 10^{-4}m)^3

V=5.23\times 10^{-10}m^3=5.23\times 10^{-7}L

Conversion used : (1 m³ = 1000 L)

Now we have to calculate the molar concentration.

Concentration=\frac{\text{Moles of protein}}{\text{Volume}}

Concentration=\frac{3.32\times 10^{-24}mol}{5.23\times 10^{-7}L}

Concentration=6.35\times 10^{-18}mol/L

Thus, the molar concentration is, 6.35\times 10^{-18}mol/L

Answer:

To maintain this balance, the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Principle states that a population should meet five main assumptions. There should be random mating, large population size, no mutation, no selection on the gene in question, and no gene flow in or out of the population.
